THE 7 | GREAT HOMEMADE FACIAL MASK FOR OILY PRONE SKIN.

I’ve been struggling with acne for a while now.Not to mention I have an oily skin which I find very frustrating especially when I put makeup on, and every after 5 minutes I have to check my face to make sure the makeup is still intact (how annoying it is!)

That’s just the tip of the iceberg, I tend to have a sensitive skin too so when someone recommends a manufactured skincare products (chemicals to be precise). I become so skeptic and afraid since the last thing I want to add in this whole skin shenanigans is a breakout! Besides these chemicals tend to be very pricey and even though you buy them without proper advice from a health care provider or a dermatologist, you may find it is just a waste of money since they can bring more harm than good to your skin.
